College-level programs

What is the difference between a DCS and an ACS?

- DCS: Technical training program that leads to a Diploma of Collegial Studies (DCS). These programs are generally three years long. Some are offered under the work-study program. Some are paired up with a DVS (DEP-DEC) and others with a Bachelor's degree (DEC-BAC).

- ACS: Technical training program that leads to an Attestation of Collegial Studies (ACS). These programs are part of the continuing education program and are offered to adults. ACS programs are generally one year long and are developed by the college. These programs are composed of technical competencies related to the profession and do not include mandatory courses in French, humanities, English, physical education or complementary courses. Certain training programs are financed by Emploi-Québec.

- AVS: Vocational training program that leads to an attestation of vocational specialty (AVS). These programs are specialization programs that follow a DVS (example: Legal secretary offered after a DVS in Secretarial studies). They may also be offered to those who already have experience and competencies deemed equivalent to a DVS.
